Daniel strongly believes in healthy work/life balance.

Thoughtful as a Hallmark Card with the work ethic of a Saint, he’s the guy who dresses so well you wonder where he’s off to later. Kevin has been an influential part of T&A since 2013. He brings with him over a decade of career and educational experience including an Honours Bachelor of Commerce degree from Laurentian University and a CPA, CGA designation.

Most appreciated for being a fantastic accountant, team member and mom, Joelle goes over and beyond in all she does with an infectious enthusiasm that draws people in. Joelle began her accounting career with Talbot in 1996. She shares her expertise and genuine care with staff and clients, being most fulfilled when she’s helping people understand their financials to make better life decisions for long-term success. In the future, Joelle aims to be more involved with organizations that dedicate efforts to help children with life-threatening illnesses. She is mainly influenced by her Mom, who carries out life with strength, a devoted heart and by keeping family connections alive. Off hours, you’ll find Joelle creating new memories while camping or taking in Festival Du Voyager with her three precious kids and hilarious husband.

There have been some key moments that have contributed to T&A’s sought-after culture known for its moral character, wit and the ability to carry out accounting excellence with compassion and results. One of those moments was when one Julien Grenier landed on the firm’s doorstep in 2008. He essentially was (and is) the poster child for the firm’s creed. Passionate about getting the most out of life and helping others do the same, Julien is determined to see T&A become a nationwide firm. Whether its playing softball or volleyball, or sailing Gore Bay in Ontario with his wife and dogs, Julien is the outdoorsman’s outdoorsman – always seeking the next opportunity to head out to the cabin to breathe in fresh air, perspective and possibility.

Two things that you can bet money on when it comes to Justin Chaput is: (1) out of any person in any room, he’ll be wearing the most interesting socks and (2) the genius perspective he brings to his work. Justin started with T&A as a junior accountant in 2001 and became a partner in 2013. He’s known for creating game-changing opportunities for clients, making the Ag Team the best it can be and mentoring team mates (except the ones who give him a hard time for being an enthusiastic Toronto Maple Leafs fan – Justin doesn’t even make eye contact with those people). Justin is thankful every day to work in a job he loves – an important belief instilled in him by his parents. His dream is to be a great father to his son, Félix, and a supportive husband to his partner, Mel; cheering them both on through life – adopting their goals as his own.

Suspicious in the best kind of way, Paul Dorey takes face value hostage every chance he gets. A miner for challenge and opportunities to learn, he’s T&A’s onsite problem-solving guru and we love him for it. An integral part of both the Audit and U.S. Tax Services Teams, Paul believes that you’ve done your job well as an accountant if you can convert complex issues into conversational language for clients. Off hours, you’ll find Paul swimming, jogging, weight-training, biking, reading and spending quality time with friends and family. He is taken with both his fiancée and Trinidad, the land she hails from. He hopes to one day open a T&A satellite office there to live out his dreams of becoming the greatest ocean-side accountant in the world.

Jean-Guy believes that happiness is a choice you make every morning. He inspires those around him by living these types of insights, and clients and colleagues across North America consider him a friend and a mentor. Born and raised on a mixed farm, Jean-Guy learned at a very young age to feed the chickens, milk cows, clean the pigpen by hand and to NEVER stand behind a coughing cow. Starting his accounting career in 1983, he worked in public practice for several years before founding Talbot and Associates on a part time basis in 1987. Growing the practice from a one-person operation in his basement to over 70 staff in 8 locations across Manitoba, he has devoted a tremendous amount of time and energy to research the secrets of operating a better practice. He is now mentoring other accountants & bookkeepers on the path of success. In 2016 Jean-Guy was formally recognized by his peers for having rendered exceptional services to the profession career achievements and received the title of fellow CPA (FCPA).

As our Chief Operations Officer and a true board game strategist, Natalie thrives on managing various projects and making sure T&A’s magic happens. She’s taken the helm of our bookkeeping services department and has been working to help define the services and grow the team. She enjoys challenging the norm and pushing our team and clients to think through their process and procedures to extract the issues, which inevitably leads to solutions. Outside of the office, she’s a laid back mom who loves the company of her children and husband, and yes, she challenges the norm with them too!

There are some people you meet that are off the beaten path in the best kind of way. Sasha is one of those people. She’s an old soul with a huge heart who looks like she just stepped off a movie set. She hasn’t told us exactly how she’s related to Mother Teresa – but it’s obvious as she’s so motivated by helping others and could accomplish anything she sets her mind to. After gaining her certificate in Applied Accounting, she joined the T&A team in 2016 and quickly went on to lead the star Bookkeeping Team. She completed her Payroll Compliance Practitioner’s Designation in 2020. Over the last 5 years, she’s made the lives of over 300 clients easier by handling their payroll and payroll related tasks. Outside of T&A time, Sasha considers it a privilege to serve at church. She enjoys romantic films, baking, sports, biking, camping and is a proud mom to her pup, Tika.

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the lady who keeps everything spinning at T&A’s head office. People are instantly drawn to Ginette because of her warm, welcoming personality, then find themselves making excuses to hang out with her because of her infectious laugh or because she always believes the best about you. It’s not surprising that this rock star was once in the Navy reserves – because there’s not a task or situation that could possibly throw this firecracker off her game. Off hours, be it packing a picnic and taking off to the beach or hiking some far-off trail in Manitoba – excursions and family are what make her world spin. When asked about a dream Ginette has for her life she responded with a whimsical grin, “to see my kids succeed at whatever it is they want…yeah…that”.

Rumoured to have single-handedly saved an entire village from being taken over by villains, there’s nothing Jan Jolicoeur can’t handle.

Quick with a “pump-you-up” fun contests or jokes, in her spare time, this lightening rod is also a marriage commissionaire, studies sign language and always stays up-to-speed on what’s happening in the world. Her passions include music (from Beethoven to Classic Rock) and being with her daughters and husband.

Naturally a ‘sink or swim’ kind of person, Aline is so well organized you might mistake her for a machine until you find out what a big heart she has!

When she isn’t gardening or cooking incredible desserts, Aline can be found planning her next travel or socializing with everybody.

While Andrew dreams of having a big family one day, for now he is happy working hard and playing harder!

We’re a smart bunch here at Talbot, but one thing we can’t seem to wrap our heads around is how we landed the most incredible IT Manager in existence. Avi joined Team Talbot in 2016. He originates from India where he gained his four years of IT and Networking Experience. He brings with his degrees in Technology, Electronics & Communications Engineering, and Post Graduate Diplomas in Enterprise Project Management and Network & Computer Technology (both obtained in Canada).

As a Junior Accountant, Colin goes through clients' year end balances and makes certain that everything is properly recorded and balanced. What he particularly likes is the puzzling aspect of numbers not matching as it’s for him like playing Dungeons and Dragons, Magic the Gathering, or video games! Finding how to “defeat the problem” is addictive.

Whether personally or professionally, Connor is always looking for new experiences or new things to learn. Every day he wakes up, he wants to learn something new and try something different; whether it’s learning more at work, a new skill, or trying out a new hobby.

Daniel is a strategically minded, minimalistic and charismatic accountant here in our St. Norbert office. He has a fascination with farming that came from his beekeeping business which he successfully ran for three years prior to Talbot & Associates. He was able to use and develop his accounting, tax and bookkeeping skills, bringing all four of his passions to Talbot & Associates and working with like minded individuals who hold the same belief about farming, accounting and taxes as he does.

Calm and supportive, Ellen is the kind of person who might like to stay in the background but she loves to help others in any way she can. That’s why her favorite part of being a bookkeeper is doing data entries and knowing that she takes the worries off of our clients’ shoulders. When Ellen isn’t working, she loves doing scrapbooks, playing board games, doing puzzles, and listening to music and singing along even if it’s a bit off tune!

Everything in life Evan chooses to do, he does to the fullest! A firm believer in continuous self-growth, he thrives on exploring, traveling, and experiencing different cultures around the world. When he was sixteen, he moved to Spain to play soccer, living out his dream for two years and starting the foundation of what shaped him into who he is today. As an avid Jets fan, he’s not all work and no play either, as he believes a good work-life balance is key. Before graduating from the Asper School of Business at the University of Manitoba in 2019 with his Bachelor of Commerce (Honours), he took a keen interest in investing at his job at RBC. For years, he was involved in ALS fundraisers, donations, and event organizations, a charity near and dear to his heart. His enthusiasm for numbers and helping people took off from there and after joining the T&A team, he earned his CPA designation in 2023. Evan’s personal travel goal is to visit each continent and, with twenty-three countries already crossed off his list, he’s well on his way! Some of the memories he holds most dear are the trip where he climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and proposing to his fiancée in Paris.

Gerald is a man of few words, but when he uses them, they’re either filled with humour or determination. After graduating from the University of Winnipeg with a Bachelor in Administration degree in 2015, T&A was the lucky company to scoop Gerald up before the others. Gerald has plans to obtain his CPA designation – we expect not long after that he’ll be running the firm. Outside the office you can find Gerald with a permanent smile while in family mode – especially wrestling with his son (usually over the TV remote) or helping his little girl paint her nails (he admits he would let his daughter paint his finger nails once she gets more skilled). Gerald enjoys writing, working with numbers and has tremendous respect for people who go to the extremes to stand up for the greater good in life.

If you want to see this girl in action, head south of Winnipeg to our Saint Norbert office where Isabella will be holding negativity prisoner with smarts and shining optimism.

If you look up, “one cool customer” in the dictionary, you’ll see Jocelyne’s photo right beside it.

At work, he applies his time to making T&A a better place with his positive, can-do attitude, willingness to assist team members and all around humorous nature.

If James Dean, G.I. Joe and Tony Robbins were in a band, they’d be called Patrick Pantel. He says he’s from a different time – we say he needs his own show. Patrick began his career in the mechanical field for nine years, before changing gears (pun intended) and switching paths. After completing his CGA studies, he found his calling in the number crunching world. Guaranteed to come at it differently than anyone else in the room, Patrick’s unique perspective, matched with his great ability to problem solve makes him a solid asset to the firm where he contributes to the year-end and personal tax filing preparation teams. When he’s not getting down to business, you’ll find Patrick peeling away on his Suzuki 250 off to the barracks, being part of the Canadian Armed Forces.

Rebecca’s personal mantra is "Is there anything more perfect than a consistently imperfect unfolding of nature."

In early 2018, a gift from France fell on our laps. It was one of innovation, artistic flare and good natured, “get it done” attitude. That gift was Remy and we couldn’t be happier about it. In his short time with the firm, he’s wowed the team and clients with his branding brilliance and fresh strategic perspectives, which he learned in various positions during over 15 years experience at advertising firm Publicis Worldwide, based in Paris. Remy sees things as they could be – not how they are (or have been done in the past!). He looks forward to sharing all he’s learned to help bring T&A and its’ clients into their next stage of growth and success. When Remy’s not conjuring up his latest strategic idea (or making a co-worker laugh with his hilarious observations), you can find him working on his YouTube channel, nurturing carnivorous plants, cooking up a storm or out and about discovering Manitoba’s great outdoors with his beautiful wife and precious daughter.

Rich often wonders why people stare at him like he has eight heads. It could be (a) his wild stories about what he blew up in his garage microwave, (b) the rapid speed in which fires back email responses or (c) that they are literally staring at all the hats he wears at the firm. Rich has been a significant part of the T&A family since 2011. He’s held positions as the IT Manager and supports the Ag Team and overall tax file preparation. He is a quick study and is constantly striving to improve himself in some way each day. In his downtime he enjoys wood working, a good book or head banging to Abba.

Soren wakes up each morning with the idea that each day is a gift and a new challenge, knowing that the challenging days make the good days that much sweeter. Passionate about seeing people improve and achieve excellence, his personal mantra is to be ‘always improving.’ In his history of officiating over 450 games in three sports, he has never raised his voice toward a player, coach, or fellow official and is proud to be discovering the fine line between calm and assertive. He plans to graduate from CMU with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree, with a major in accounting, in early 2022. For over half a decade, he has been involved with True North Helping Hands, an organization that builds and maintains school buildings for the indigenous children of Baja California, Mexico. Over the four trips he’s taken to Mexico to help with builds, he’s made friends from across Canada and the U.S., learned to appreciate an afternoon siesta, and even learned to speak some “playground Spanish”. In July of 2019, he was an on-field official at the U18 Flag Football National Championship and worked 23 games over three days, including both the men’s and women’s finals, and cites the experience as one he will cherish.

Motivated and caring, Stephan uses his will and tenacity to challenge himself but also to help his clients. His desire to make a positive impact as often as he can also translates into his job where he gives it his all to find solutions to your problems.
